Story and Craft! Yes please!!

Bringing together two activities we love!!

Reading books and making a craft or getting involved in an art project that is linked to a story is such a wonderful way to engage with children! Crafts bring the book or story alive, and the story adds meaning to the Art!

We recently teamed up with some fantastic bloggers during our Read It Make It Book + Craft week.

Here are more than 50 ideas that bring books and stories and crafts together!

This sweet little lady has a house with six rooms. The book begins with all rooms being empty. They slowly fill up with interesting characters, and as each person fills an empty room a fraction is shown to represent the number of rooms filled – make your own Full House!

I wish that I had Duck Feet by Dr Seuss is a wonderful story about loving yourself just the way you are! Try Painting your Own Duck Feet with this fun walking – painting craft! This is sure to bring smiles!
